Superfamily ICHNEUMONOIDEA 671 



Bosmina Cameron, 1899. Manchester Lit. and Phil. Soc, Mem. and Proc. 43 (3): 120. 



Preocc. by Baird, 1845. 



Type-species: Bosmina spinipes Cameron. Monotypic. 

 Hymenohosmina Dalla Torre, 1901. Wien. Ent. Ztg. 20: 52. N. name for Bosmina 



Cameron. 

 Neobosmiiia Cameron, 1906. Entomologist 39: 250. Probably a lapsus for Hymenohosmina 



Dalla Torre, as evidenced bt Cameron's inclusion of Bosmina mandibularis Cameron 



and by the fact that he gave no indication that he was describing a new genus; possibly 



not treatable as a lapsus without more definite proof. 



Type-species: Neobosmina pilosella Cameron. Desig. by Viereck, 1914. 



This is a large genus of the Old World. The number of Palearctic species appears to be small, 

 and it is my impression that more Eriborus species occur in the Oriental Region that in other 

 tropical and subtropical parts of the Old World.

 molestae (Uchida). Korea, Japan. Introduced between 1932 and 1953 at 321 localities from 

 Mass. w. to 111., s. to Ga. and Ark., according to Allen (1962); there was temporary 

 establishment at least from many of the releases between 1932 and 1937, but the species 

 has apparently not persisted anywhere in the United States. The host cited was the 

 target species for releases in the United States.

 red pine tip infested by Rhyacionia buoliana (D. and S.).
